(...) Everyone seems jumpy on Lugnet today... perhaps it's just me. I didn't mean to imply it was useless, just that it wasn't a major buying point of the set. I'm by no means a brick-purist, and am all for new and non-standard pieces, except when (...) (20 years ago, 15-Jul-04, to lugnet.loc.au, FTX)

| | New Knight Kingdom Sets
|
|
So hey, I was in K-Mart today and I found these new Knights Kingdoms sets. Not the big Bionicle like sets, but Minifig scale sets. Why did I not know of this sooner! I like the idea of Purple Knights. hmmm, purple.... Leg Godt Travis Matheson (20 years ago, 15-Jul-04, to lugnet.loc.au)

I was too busy enjoying the designer-ey goodness of [LEGOSet 4505] [LEGOSet 4506] [LEGOSet 4507] [LEGOSet 4508] Why waste your budget on HP sets full of pallid minifigs and juniorized parts when (...)
